Marking Pens
Marking Pens
Years ago ou could buy pens with indelible ink. These were permanent markers of a deep purple color and never came off. They were used alot to mark labels on fabrics for drycleaning so they were imperviour=s to the cleaning agents. A search on the internet shows me they are still available and might be worth looking into for a permanent maker.

This is a great idea. A couple of things to ponder/investigate perhaps related more to marketing, as the design is fully functional.:TS ISAAC said:
-Standard Credit card size (with the coding holes & a minimum req'd semicircle removal to still register easily and keep some body to the card) This may leave a bit of room for the user to mark his personal lens coding reminders on the balance of the card.
-Your stylish design, provided in a lens filter size clear pouch with a small card to contain user lens notes (similar to the duo plastic pouches provided to display two piece driver licenses).
Good work Tim,
Robert

Ok, I love the thumbs up. And I've been trying to figure out the best solution for coding my Voigtlanders. Add me, I'd love one.

Tim,
Put me on the list. The Thumbs Up has been a lifesaver for me in terms of staying steady over the shot. Coincidentally, I have a 35mm Summaron on the way, so your latest invention will come in very handy.

I think the idea is good but the paint thing bothers me.
Why don´t you change the paint to something more durable?
I have thought of Autoadhesive Plastic Film.
I would modify your plastic u shaped,
tool, in a way you could place a plastic "label" previously cut.
This label could have the holes that you need depending on the lens type.
What do you think?

Hi Tim,
I would like to purchase one of your encoder kits but do not want to open a Paypal account to pay for it. If you recall you sent me an email advising me that you were sending me a Paypal invoice and I emailed you back asking if you would accept a money order or personal check and have not heard back from you. I'm still interested so let me know if these other forms of payment are acceptable or if I can pay you through Paypal without having to open an account.
Thanks,
Ron

You can send money by PayPal without opening an account - on the PayPal payment page, you should see the link
Don't have a PayPal account Use your credit card or bank account (where available).
This takes you to a secure page where you type you card details as you would do for any normal online transaction.
By the way, Tim now has a website: www.matchtechnical.com

This is an exceptionally good idea.
There are 2 detractors I can think of. One is the thickness of the film. If it can be held under 0.004" it may work. I have found some of my lenses fit more tightly than others. I experimented with Scotch tape, the invisible variety, with encoding marks on it, and found my lenses 'swept' it away when the lens locked, or at least tried to move the tape. If the adhesive is stronger than tape, and the thickness is, well, thin, this may prove to be a useful alternative to using an ink pen.
The second consideration is to keep the lens in alignment. A second, or better yet, a second and third equally sized auto adhesive sticker may need to be placed equidistant around the lens base to keep the lens properly lined up.
Great idea you have. Let's look at this with some experiments.
So, would that be You or me?

I successfully coded my Zeiss 28mm & 35mm with Tim's kit (had to fill the screw hole first with some white nail polish).

Hi Tim,
I just got my m-coder kit. Only 4 days after ordering it had found its way all the way from China to Holland. Very fast! I haven't tried it out yet since all my lenses stull have sufficient ink on them, but that will soon wear off so i can give the m-coder a try. I have pit the m-coder in one of the boxes the IR filters came in and put it together with the pen in my bag for use on the road.
I do have one question: What do the blue and red dots on the d-coder mean?
Greetings and thanks!
Hans
